It doesn't look like the task 2 code has been added yet.

The complete task 2 instructions are: "Great! Now you can create a movie to add to your database. Use a variable named new_movie. Create a Movie() with whatever movie_title and genre you want. Then add your movie to session."

But in the code above, I'm not seeing a variable named "new_movie" being created and then assigned using "Movie()", nor any code to add it to "session".
